Chapter 38 Targeted
Sylvie would usually try to explain her relationship with Kelly to Cyril, but now that they were over and she was so disappointed in Cyril, she didn’t even want to bother.
–
Cyril and Sylvie no longer had any relationship, yet he came over demanding answers from her. There had never been an ounce of trust between them in their marriage the lack of trust had been their biggest issue all along.
Sylvie’s reaction cut Cyril deeply. Furious that she was being so uncooperative and refused to explain what was going on, Cyril hadn’t expected this from Sylvie at all.
“Wow, so you don’t think you owe me any explanation huh? Tell me then, what role does he play in our marriage? Did he cause our divorce? What do you get out of being with him instead of me?”
“And what did I get out of being with you? You were always obsessed with Carina, causing problems in our marriage, never taking it seriously. Why should I take you seriously?”
Sylvie laughed bitterly. What nerve did he have interrogating her like this, when he was the one who had messed up their marriage?
“You can’t even handle your own issues, so don’t come pestering me. Have you dealt with the Carina situation? You keep grilling me but never look at your own problems. Why did we get a divorce in the first place? Do you have no self–awareness?”
Sylvie shoved Cyril angrily after her retort. She walked over to Kelly, deliberately putting her arm around Kelly’s waist as they headed out.
Kelly and Juliette glanced back at Cyril as they left, enjoying his stormy expression after being put in his place. It was too amusing seeing Sylvie’s ex–husband so worked up.
“Well well, look who can get Cyril all riled up. Now I really believe you’ve moved on. But why did he come looking for you anyway? Was it because of me?”
Kelly asked Sylvie as they walked away.
Sylvie nodded. “That photo must have been taken by Jonathan. He sent it to Cyril, who thought you were the third party in our marriage. That’s why he came demanding if I divorced him for you.”
“How laughable. Cyril was the only one who had an affair in your marriage, yet he tries to blame everything on you.”
Upon hearing this, Juliette rolled her eyes. Whether Kelly was male or female wasn’t the

problems occurred, only seeking to assign blame onto others.
Sylvie sighed in agreement. “That’s why I didn’t bother with him. He can’t even resolve the Carina situation himself yet still wants to harass me. We’re already divorced, why does he think I still owe him anything?”
The three women vented about Cyril as they got into their respective cars and headed home.
“You awake? What’s with those online rumors about you? Is someone intentionally targeting you?”
